Besides the taillights... did anyone else notice that the CF hood they have on that one looks different from the one they already have out, and that the tailgate handle is missing lol

Hey Rod, what clear corners do you have on your car? The RX-7 ones, or did you go the Celca route?

How is the fitment? I head they still leave a litle bit of the original hole showing, and since you have a show car, judges won't take that. How did they work out? What was needed to make them look good? I have a high standard for my car, and don't want some half-assed job on it. Any pics of them close up? They look nice!

The sidemarkers did'nt fit at first, they stuck out because they were to bulky. Well one of my friends shaved the lenses of the clear sides and stock sides. Then he glued the clearsidemarker onto the backing of the stock sidemarker and pooofffff it came out looking good. The only problem was the glue he used was kind of yellow so im still working on that. Judges appreciated the fact that I took something from another car and hooked it up on my ride.

Cool Rod! So, all in all, is it a worthwhile mod? I've got some time here over winter, so I may just dive in and do it. Did you keep the stock yellow bulbs, (if they are yellow) or go with clear ones? If you kept yellow bulbs, do they show through that much?

I typically hate APC products...but amazingly, I actually like those lights....just the way they are. I have a silver P5 and I love the gunmetal/carbon fiber/silver look and I think that would compliment it well.

Anyword on a price?

Clear corners? I thought all Protege5's have clear corners, unless you're talking about the clear reflectors on the side. I'm confused.

Thanks man I'm not sure if I like it or not, ... I like the light, but don't know if I like it on a P5.

Can you body color the grey in the light?
